About Eugene

I'm currently trying to get back to my original weight of 7 Pounds and 6 ounces. yeah it's an uphill battle...
I am a purveyor of many genres and mediums, from comics and anime, to movies and television shows. I'll get anything a shot and if it's good I'll praise it, and if it's bad... I'll be brutally honest.
And I love frozen yogurt, I will always seek some out after a meal.
